Only A Prayer Away (Acoustic)

Story Behind The Song

This Song In Part, Is A Memory Of My Late Sister's Words To Me From Decades Ago When Describing The Feeling She Had Giving Herself To God And Fully Accepting The Lord As Her Savior When She Said; "You'll Know When That Occurs, As A Joy Will Flood Your Heart" ... Sadly, She Passed Away From Early-Onset Alzheimer's After A Ten Year Battle In October 2014. The Song Had Been Completed Two Years Prior As Initially Inspired By The Words Of Our Pastor' Sermon During A Summer Mass For Sunday School Youth That Included My Son. He Was Quoting A Bishop Who Spoke At Their Retreat The Night Before When He Said; "Do You Love Jesus?" And "Are You In Love With Him?" ... I Had The Honor Of Singing "Only A Prayer Away" At The Confirmation Mass Later That October And Have Sung It At Every Confirmation Since, However, On October 24, 2014, The Day Of The Funeral, Where Twenty-Seven Years Earlier To The Day My Sister Had Sung For My Wife And I At Our Wedding In New Jersey, I Sang "Only A Prayer Away" For Her At The Skillman Bible Church In Dallas, Texas. As Fate/Faith Would Have It, Two Years Later, The Song Was Awarded A Semi-Finalist Finish In The Dallas Songwriter's Association 29th Annual Contest ... It Gives Me Great Joy That This Song Is Finding Its Way Into Various Charts And Channels With The Hope It Will Bring A Good Feeling To Those That Hear It ... GOD Is GOOD ...

Lyrics

Are You In Love With The Lord?

Have You Heard?

That He's In Love With You ...

And For Every Moment In Ones' Life ... Be It High Or Low ... His Guiding Light Shines Through

Reach Out When Your Moment's Right ... At Any Place Or Time Of Day

For When You Fall In Love With The Lord ... He'll Be On Your Mind

Yet Deep Inside Your Soul ... Where He Will Stay

If You Need The Love Of The Lord

He'll Be ... Only A Prayer Away



Yes I'm In Love With The Lord ... And He's In Love With Me

Now That I Have Him In My Life ... The Path To Travel Becomes Clear To See

He'll Be Waiting When Your Moment's Right ...

Reach Out At Any Place Or Time Of Day

For When You Hold The Hand Of The Lord ...

He'll Be Standing There ... Beside You Where One Finds Him When They Pray

If You Need The Hand Of The Lord ... He'll Be ... Only A Prayer Away


Instrumental Break


He'll Be Waiting When Your Moment's Right ... Reach Out At Any Place Or Time Of Day

For Once You Seek The Love Of The Lord

With A Joy To Flood Ones' Heart You'll Find Your Sins ... Are Washed Away

When We Feel The Love Of The Lord ... No I'm Not Ashamed

Tell It On The Highest Mountain I've Proclaimed

Yes I'm In Love With The Lord ... And He's Only A Prayer Away

Are You In Love With The Lord?

Have You Heard?

He Is In Love With You ...
